So Long 2023! 2024 Loading...

What can I say about 2023? 
It was the best of times, it was the worst at <of> times...
For me, this year was the most I’ve ever intentionally been able to invest in myself professionally, emotionally, spiritually, socially, and financially.  I was able to tap into some God-given strength, power, and perseverance that I never knew I had. I was able to process and learn from loss, failure, and poor choices in a more positive way and move forward.  When I internalized the fact that forgiveness isn't always transactional but, removes the necessity of an explanation for closure, I was then able to forgive others and myself and take inventory of what I needed for me and what I had left to give to those who required something from me. 
And I found out that I actually had more to give and less to take. I was able to trust God’s timing more and not rush to get ahead of Him. I was able to get out of my head more often and not perseverate on “what-ifs”.  And I was able to intentionally adopt an attitude of gratitude despite disappointment. 
All-in-all I’m not saying that 2023 had been easy, I’m saying that the joy and inner peace that I’ve experienced this year was a result of working on myself and reframing my mind.  I feel like I am ready to build on this stronger foundation that I obtained within myself in 2023 and give back even more in 2024.
I am grateful to have gotten this far and am even more hopeful for this next Chapter. I hope my testimony blesses you, empowers you, and pushes you forward in your next Chapter! 
Wishing you and yours a blessed and fruitful New Year!
